Welcome

Learning can be exhilarating, inspiring, and rewarding. It can also be difficult, disillusioning, and exhausting. The services of the Bureau of Study Counsel (BSC) are designed to support you in your efforts to learn and grow at Harvard -- to approach your intellectual work with skill, strategy, and spirit; to make difficult choices about your time and your priorities; to conduct yourself with integrity and honor; to develop a sense of voice and authority in your scholarship, relationships, and leadership; to work well and play well with others; to discover what leaves you feeling enlivened and engaged; and to make meaning of your work and your life. Welcome!

The Bureau of Study Counsel is committed to nurturing a welcoming, inclusive, and respectful environment for all members of our community.
